How to get there - Malmö
Arrival in Copenhagen
Steps: Malmö
Landing in Copenhagen. Depending on the time of your arrival, enjoy a short visit of the Danish capital or go directly over the Öresund bridge to the quieter and more charming city of Malmö, by car or train. If you plan to rent a car, do it in Malmö rather than in Copenhagen because it costs a bridge to cross the Öresund Bridge with a vehicle. The Copenhagen-Malmö train ride is fast, cheap and easy (directly from Copenhagen airport!).
Malmö, a taste of design
Steps: Malmö
Wake up in Malmö and visit the city. From the train station, you can walk to the small square of Lilla Torg and then to the larger square of Stortorget (the Main Square) and wander through the shopping streets. Don't miss the Form Design Center (Lilla Torg 9) where you can get a taste of Nordic design (information, Malmö, things to see/do). History and culture lovers should not miss the Museum of Modern Art, the City Tunnel Exhibition or Malmö Castle, but in any case, we recommend a late afternoon stop at Ribersborgbadhus for a guaranteed relaxing time. A walk along the water and hop! we go to the Pier to enjoy the saunas and then a dive (summer and winter) in the Baltic.
Places of interest : MUSÉE D'ART MODERNE (MODERNA MUSEET) FORM DESIGN CENTER GRAND PLACE (STORTORGET)
Castle, walks and beach
Steps: Lund
Departure to Helsingborg where we will spend the day visiting Sofiero Castle (Sofiero Slottsträdgard) on the seaside, walking through the small streets of the old town and, in summer, basking in the sun for a few hours on the beaches at the end of Strandvägen. Alternatively, perhaps more suited to the colder months (althoughHelsingborg's seaside, and the quietness there in autumn and winter, also has a certain charm), the city of Lund is also a worthwhile stop. There is a beautiful 100 year old university, a church with a crypt and an unusual clock, as well as a very pleasant student and dynamic atmosphere. There are small stores where you can find unusual objects, cozy cafés where you can try fika (the Swedish coffee break with a pastry) and Saluhallen (covered market) where you can eat for 100 SEK (various hot meals). At the end of the day, go to Gothenburg to spend the night.
Places of interest : CHÂTEAU DE SOFIERO (SOFIERO SLOTTSTRÄDGÅRD)
Visit to Gothenburg
Steps: Göteborg
Visit Sweden's second largest city, Gothenburg. Ask at the tourist office, as you may be lucky enough to arrive in the middle of a festival.
Between culture and nature
Steps: Styrsö
The day will be filled with culture and fika breaks. In order to enjoy the surrounding nature: the islands of Hisingen (Volvo museum, aviation museum, etc.) but also those ofHönö-Öckerö or Styrsö which can be reached by ferry (free).
The literary route
Steps: Tjörn
Drive to Tjörn (Watercolor Museum) or even Fjällbacka (the village of Camilla Läckberg's novels, 130 km from Gothenburg), taking time to drive along the coast and make stops at the seaside to jump from rock to rock and, in summer, for a little swim. Night in Fjällbacka (or back to Gothenburg).
